Don't look around too much and end up getting spoiled in the process. You just have to know that the first Muv-Luv game comes with Extra and Unlimited. Unlimited is unlocked by clearing Sumika and Meiya route in Extra.

Once you are done with those, you are ready for the final game. Muv-Luv Alternative, the last part, needs to be acquired separately.

Getting back on topic, the staff sure went all out in this episode. The fight scenes were superb and intense. So they were saving up their budget for the last two episodes or so?

Surprised
-The way Scar dude died and right at the start of the episode
-Some girl in that tank.
-Laser class killing
-3-girl operatives that were captured by RLF alive and well.
-RLF guy with knife on map

I'm not precisely certain what was going on at the end, but they make it appear as though they were discussing the assassination plot. Yet then all of a sudden, it goes on to something about enemies & love rivals.

Awhile after the battle had already ended, you don't see Yuuya and Cryska. So apparently he was captured by the Soviets, and they just probably threw them both into the tank together for whatever medical reason. Time passes, Yuuya shrugs off the obvious atmosphere between Yui and himself by keeping it all formal. Yui meets Ensign Barchenowa, and then they have THE talk.

You see that! That right there is the look of mortal fear. The desperate hope that she doesn't find out about what he has done. And yet, Yui doesn't flip the collective shit. Because, she is also keeping a secret from Yuuya, which she failed to tell him as he shrugged her off earlier. When that happened, I don't know. But in both cases for what is certain, Yifei is going to kill him.

So your theory is that Yuuya and Cryska have consummated their relationship, but Yui isn't giving up?

- i was certain Yuuya will not die but the shock is he barely injured
- Sandek is just doing his job
- actually i am wondering did they cut Inia's story or something, at one point she was hinted to be not as innocence/naive as she looks/acts, i was expecting some twists for her...

overall this show is 6/10 for me, but if episodes 1 and 2 are standalone/OVA, i would give them 8/10

So, did Stella and Macaroni actually reach the U.S. Anchorage Base for reinforcements or did they double back to Yukon instead? I remember them going there, but that plot point seemed to get drop in the last 2 episodes.

They got some guns from the Raptors. Dont think they made it all the way to the american base, since they had to help with clearing Luxs. And Captain Burnings was riding the one eyed dragon!

I was watching this just this morning (fittingly enough, on Cryska's birthday).

On one hand I was like "FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF- WHY Y U NO CONTINUE!? THERE IS SO MUCH STUFF TO BE DONE!?"

On another, they managed to wrap up anime neatly enough, some of the points while not fully resolved, are at least set forward for a definite conclusion...if we ever get to see a real ending. But then again, that's only fair - because real Total Eclipse has not been concluded either.

Overall, this maybe was not the best mecha show ever; but it did reasonably enough. Personally I liked it, maybe because I never tried to compare it with Alternative. Sure, it's the same universe, but Total Eclipse is an unrelated, test-pilot related side-story. And I felt it did pretty well with that, if you squinted past some obligatory fan service episodes. In fact, the show probably suffers from the simple time limitation - there's just no way to squeeze in all the details an explanations that you can pack into novel or VN.

Spoiler for As for the actual episode::

That Berkut scene...it was just so, so much boss. I loved it. Almost "ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL" memetastic.

The fights were also really well done. Loved seeing the Type-00 and Berkut dance. Ultimate showdown of the ultimate waifus.

Also, Sandek gets my seal of approval. It's about time our nationality was represented in capacity of ruthless manipulative, magnificent bastards....but this was really brilliant. Using Yuuya first to awaken Sisters Super Soviet Science Battle powers and then sicking Yuuya on them hoping that his death would mentally break them and make them easier to control...and even if not, then their relationship could be used to further Sisters combat potential. Brilliant. Just brilliant. My inner schemers is crying in admiration. No matter what happens, Sandek wins.

The idea with using Heavy laser as a shield was brilliant. Shows that not all U.S pilots are just "show" as some would want.

Also, Adam Jen*ekhm* I mean, Silvio Orlandi? What are you doing there? Guess the whole thing is just a tip in the ice berg for Alternative Plan troubles.

Which places an interesting spin on the Master. Is he just a CIA operative? Or a genuine Allegiance member? Did he become so disgusted with the world that he doesn't care if it's destroyed, or does he believe that by starting afresh on an entirely new world, with rest of the "corrupted" mankind sentenced to stay on G-bombed Earth, is the way through which humanity as a species will be saved?

And that theory on why Yui would be shot in LN...very, very curious. Didn't know you cared Sandek. And yandere Inia is just creepy.

And in a way, I really raged at YuuyaxYui ending...but on the other hand, it ended well too. No kiss or anguished declaration of love...but they don't feel like they need to do so. Because it's not the end you see - they will see each other again, and have the confidence to see it through. And that's nice too.

Well, now all that's left is the Total Eclipse VN~
